Definately fortress should be back.

I think it was one of the coolest looking towns and nice creature ideas... So if fortress and dungeon are united like in heroes4  i would like it to be more like fortress than dungeon. In homm4 its clearly more like dungeon.

I took it as an insult when they removed the Fortress. Just look at my avatar !

Everything's cool about the dragonflies - their tongue, speed, the fact that they dwell in tree-hole, the way it blinks, and firbreathing ability !

I think you guys understimate Wyverns (upgraded). Their poison is very, very deadly. Wyverns themselves don't deal much damage - they don't need to.
Once Archangels, or other big creature is poisoned - all you have to do is sit back and buy as much time as possible. After several turns gorgons can trample them on their own.

And yes, I think Fortress is the best looking town in H3. Everything fits, and every building looks "swampish".

Werewolves may not be as bad idea for fortress - it's quite  woody town, after all. Lots of shrubbery and plants, at least.... besides, witches and werewolves are the same story, don't you think ?

I read this boock
And I know how the basilisk is shown there - but

ah, I just read a text about the basilsik mythology
There the Basilisk is as in its earlyest form described as the king of snakes so ur version would fit quite well.
The chicken-shape was created later...
So I must appologise, ur pics fit the mythological background very well

Why not give it crown-shaped spikes to the ehad? as he is king of snakes? and maybe draw his splitted tung?

edit:
look, I found a dragonfly:
